Abstract: A rare earth superconducting composition includes grains of a rare earth superconducting oxide and a noble metal distributed in controlled concentrations in the rare earth superconducting composition. The noble metal may be silver. The noble metal may be present in a plurality of particles dispersed in each of the grains, and some of the particles have diameters up to 5 µm. A process for making a rare earth superconducting composition is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: (1) preparing a compact containing a rare earth superconducting oxide and a compound containing a noble metal wherein the noble metal is distributed in controlled concentrations in the compact; (2) heating the compact so that the compact becomes a semi-molten state; and (3) slowly cooling the compact so that grains of a rare earth superconducting oxide start growing from a portion of the compact in which a concentration of the noble metal is lowest. A seed crystal contacting with the compact may be used in the process. The seed crystal has a partial melting point higher than a partial melting point of the compact, and the seed crystal has a lattice constant similar to a lattice constant of the rare earth superconducting oxide.

Inventor: CUTRIGHT EDWIN L
IPC: D21H23/24
Filed: 1993-11-11
Abstract: This invention relates to the treatment of substrates 21 with fluidized material in repetitive patterns 82 during application cycles. The treatment patterns made with this invention can be altered by changing machine operating parameters. The patterns of fluidized material are applied to substrates using intermittent charges of compressed air. The intermittent charges of compressed air pass through a venturi slot in an applicator 40 which creates a region of low pressure in the charges adjacent to a region where the fluidized material accumulates between application cycles. This region of low pressure helps to entrain the fluidized material in the charge of compressed air. After the fluidized material is entrained in the charge of compressed air, the charge deposits the fluidized material on the substrate.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for removing sulphur compounds from water which contains low levels of organic matter, by anaerobic reduction of the sulphur compounds to sulphide, followed by partial oxidation of the sulphide to elementary sulphur.
